Week 5: The Beauty of Imperfection

Nov 29, 2018

For the After Effects animation assignment, I collaborated with Su He and Ellie Lin.

When we were putting together the pieces of the animation that we had created, we realized that the fact that we had a very clear story board as well as a color palette really helped bring the animation to uniformity to make it look like a one continuous animation that possibly one person could have made. We set together to make tweeks so that all parts of our animation shared the same style and transitions.

We also felt that we needed to have sound effects for each of the items animated in the animation, and set down to choose a sound track that would go well with it. We looked through the Free Music Archive website, and found the sound track that gave the animation a very melancholy but beautiful feel to it, which is what we were going for.

Here is the final version of our animation, The Beauty of Imperfections:
